5.8 TEMPERATURE UNIT
The temperature can be programmed and displayed in degrees Celsius (C)
or Fahrenheit (F). As default this unit is set to C.
5.9 INPUT TYPE
The input type defines the character of the additional inputs IN1 and IN2.
This can be Normally Open (NO) or Normally Closed (NC). If an input is set
to "NO", the alarm will be triggered as soon as the terminals of the input
are closed. If the input is set to NC, the alarm is triggered when the
connection between the input terminals is broken. The default input type is
set to "NO".
5.10 ALARM DELAY TIME
The input delay time defines the time that the input is triggered before an
alarm is initiated. If the input returns to the non-alarm status within the
delay time, no alarm is sent. The time can be set between 0 and 999
seconds. As default, the input delay time is set to 1 second.
5.11 INACTIVE TIME
The “inactive time” defines the time an input is not active after an activation.
During the inactive time, no new alarm message will be sent. Only when the
input returned to the non-alarm status, gets activated again and remains
active, an alarm will be sent yet after the inactive time. If the time is set to
“0” (minutes), the input will be active again immediately after returning to
the non-alarm status. The time can be set between 0 and 60 minutes. As
default, the inactive time is set to “0”.
5.12 ALARM REPEAT TIME
In order to emphasize the urgency of the alarm messages, all alarms can be
repeated. As long as the temperature value or an input has not returned to
the inactive status, the alarm messages will be repeated after the ‘alarm
repeat time’. The repeat interval can be set between 0 and 999 minutes. As
default the alarm repeat time is set to 0 minutes (no repeat).
